This could be a decent approach, since it's linked to analogous browsing convenience. However, with categories not being a true part of the language, it has a fairly serious weakness: majorShrink, and other extreme space-saving measures may, and do currently, discard classOrganizers, and this would seem to break any code that depends on class organization.
